第13单元 重逢
I was adopted when I was only four weeks old. My biological mother were very poor and my father was sick with cancer. They made the decision to put me up for adoption. I grew up in a loving and happy home with two parents and a sister.
我才四周大时就被人认养，我的亲生父母非常穷，而我父亲得了癌症，因此他们决定送我去给人认养。我成长在一个充满爱与快乐的家庭，有父母和一个姐姐。
When I was ten years old, my parents told me that I was adopted. It felt strange to hear that the people who raised me didn't give birth to me. When I turned sixteen, I asked my parents to help me find my birthparents. We registered our names with the proper agencies and the search began.
当我十岁时，我父母告诉我，我是养子。养我的人却不是生我的人，这听起来很奇怪。当我十六岁时，我拜托养父母帮我寻找亲生父母，我们找了几间征信社登记名字展开搜寻。
Unfortunately, the search wasn't sucessful, so I began to try and find them myself. Fianlly, last September, I was reunited with my mother. My father had died a long time ago but my mother showed me pictures and told me storied about him.
不幸的是，寻人并不成功，于是我开始自己寻找。终于，去年九月我与生母相认，我的生父很久以前就去世了，不过我的生母拿照片给我看，并告诉我有关他的故事。
My birthmother and I are friends now and I love visiting her when I can. I feel more complete having met her but no one can ever replace the family I grew up with.
我和生母至今仍是朋友，当我有空时，便会去拜访她。见到她后，我感觉更加完整，不过还是没有人能取代陪我长大的家人。
